BOXFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Iatric Systems, Inc. today announced that its Security Audit Manager™ solution was named KLAS Category Leader in the Patient Privacy Monitoring category of the 2017 Best in KLAS: Software & Servicesreport. Being named Category Leader in the 2014, 2015/2016, and 2017 Best in KLAS reports, Security Audit Manager was again ranked highly in each category by customers with an overall score of 90.2.
Security Audit Manager extends beyond automating patient privacy monitoring with analytics, filtering, and behavioral analysis capabilities to accurately identify inappropriate access to all Protected Health Information (PHI) across disparate systems. With various methods built into its functionality, Security Audit Manager narrows down the audit scope, having reduced audit volume by as much as 95 percent. Remaining audits are then ranked and weighted, allowing audits with the highest probability of inappropriate behavior to be reviewed. Advanced technology algorithms filter out false positives and analyze user behaviors to automate workflows for streamlined investigations.
“OCR has made protecting patient privacy through auditing patient data access a requirement for healthcare organizations, and the sheer volume of audits can be overwhelming without automation. With analytics and behavioral analysis as part of its nature, Security Audit Manager finds the most probable privacy violations and helps increase auditor productivity,” said Rob Rhodes, Vice President Software Solutions at Iatric Systems. “We have more than 14 years of experience in implementing Security Audit Manager as well as expertise in so many areas of healthcare technology. We’ve also worked with hundreds of healthcare technology systems over our 27-year history and understand how to integrate and work with these solutions. This, combined with our continued investment in advanced technology, allows Security Audit Manager and Iatric Systems to better protect patient privacy, bringing true value to hospitals.”
Initially released in 2003, Security Audit Manager has been implemented in nearly 1,000 healthcare facilities in the U.S. and Canada. Partner Risk Manager™, another part of the Iatric Systems suite of patient privacy solutions, helps reduce the privacy risks associated with vendors and third parties by ensuring due diligence through automating workflows and determining vendor risk.
“Helping protect patient privacy is not a responsibility we take lightly, especially as it is increasingly important to providers and patients alike. This is exactly why we tirelessly work to enhance the functionality of Security Audit Manager as well as the support and expertise we offer,” said Frank Fortner, President of Iatric Systems. “Having customers select us as a KLAS Category Leader for the third year in a row shows our deep commitment to offering the highest level of patient privacy technology and service to our customers. We are truly honored to be named a KLAS leader again in 2017.”
